We examined salivary reactivity to a high-risk binge food in women with bulimia before and after cognitive-behavioral treatment. Prior to treatment, there was no change in salivation after presentation of high-risk food cues. After treatment, salivation increased significantly (p = .002) over baseline after presentation of the same foods. Salivary reactivity was negatively correlated with systolic blood pressure, but was unrelated to heart rate, self-report anxiety, or depression. Changes in salivary reactivity may be meaningful clinical index worthy of further investigation in this population.
我们检测了神经性贪食症女性在接受认知行为治疗前后对高风险暴饮暴食食物的唾液反应性。治疗前，呈现高风险食物线索后唾液分泌没有变化。治疗后，呈现相同食物后唾液分泌相较于基线显著增加（p = .002）。唾液反应性与收缩压呈负相关，但与心率、自我报告的焦虑或抑郁无关。唾液反应性的变化可能是一个有意义的临床指标，值得在该人群中进一步研究。
